When To Get 2024 Volvo XC40 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2024 Volvo XC40, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your XC40 bounces, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2024 Volvo XC40 in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your XC40 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Volvo XC40’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Volvo XC40 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2024 Volvo XC40 suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2024 Volvo XC40’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Volvo XC40 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2024 Volvo XC40’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

Questions About 2024 Volvo XC40 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my XC40's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Volvo XC40? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Volvo intended.
  • Does my Volvo XC40 power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your XC40 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Volvo's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Volvo XC40 to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your XC40 goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my XC40's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your XC40 combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Volvo XC40 are bad? Worn XC40 shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
